Key lessons from Brazil Amplify our people. Ignore the opposition. Use the tools owned by fascists to defeat the fascists? Meet the people where they are. May need to reconsider my staunch position of boycotting Meta for the reason. Thoughts?

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

i don't think anyone should run explicitly on banning online gambling but i do think that a democratic-led government should just quietly take steps to undermine the industry and create an inhospitable regulatory environment

Lula won in part by banning online gambling

And we know Trump is a stickler about proper handling of national security information…

Federal prosecutors have brought new charges against former FBI Director James B. Comey, accusing him of mishandling national security information in October 2016, according to court papers unsealed on Monday. More: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Might be an idea just to send out constant support and positive messages about your local politicians.

We also organized the community to synchronize topics and hashtags so we could point to the algorithms the trending topics. With that, we could expose to the undecided voters what was at stake, and show the rotten side of the fascist candidates. All of that without using bots or fake news.

Meta and Google auction off our eyeballs every few seconds (it’s probably milliseconds by now), so every user logged on is netting Zuckerberg more money, which allots him more power and influence. There really is no winning with these guys other than not to play.🤷‍♀️

Consciously pay attention to good people doing good things. Notice bravery, kindness and helpfulness. Refresh your soul and heart by looking for those who support the rule of law & care for others. There are good things all around us, so make room for appreciation of those who are on our side. 💙💙💙

This is what putting South Carolina first looks like. I’m honored to have the support of two former governors — Republican David Beasley and Democrat Jim Hodges. We may not agree on everything, but we share a belief that matters most: S.C. deserves leaders who will always put its people first.

1) Don't respond directly to trolls by clicking the "reply" button on their posts. Instead, either find a decent post by someone else to boost (and if possible add a useful picture with a chart in it) or make your own. 2) Follow certain accounts that you know will get lots of views...

What you fight, you feed. The right is very intentional about the vile they spread. They lie not to be believed but rather to be repeated. Congrats Brazil - may this and Serbia be a portent.

Can I join the suit? Donald never unblocked me for a tweet about his hairstyle.

NEW: Press freedom groups have sued the Trump administration — alleging in federal court that attempting to bar CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from the White House violates the First Amendment rights of ordinary citizens to access information about the U.S. government.

The orientation I want congress to have: productive conflict is GOOD. Dems have a real credibility gap. They need to communicate clearly to the public what they are for. Hold the regime accountable and force Trumpists to oppose popular stuff. Don't muddy the message with watered down bipartisan BS.

Leaders of the No Kings movement are already gearing up for the next major grassroots campaign: Making sure congressional Democrats don’t wimp out. My first piece at @newrepublic.com! (Reposted to update link card) newrepublic.com/article/2168...

Lula: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world. We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."

This supercut is likely to make Trump VERY upset. The difference between Trump and Obama is on full display, and the contrast is absolutely devastating. Watch until the end...

It would be delightful if our goony maladjusted oligarchs trying to play masters of the universe is what starts tipping countries away from the fascists they try to install.

If Elon doesn't interfere it will stream on HBO in January. Until then, in theaters or Pay Per view on Apple or Amazon.

I’m watching Trump at this press briefing praise Amy Acton’s abusive mom and calling her an honest woman. He’s a sick and small man. And he will be remembered as the worst person to ever serve as president.

A stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, whose government cultivated close ties with Donald Trump and his family, has conceded defeat to a student-led opposition movement in a historic parliamentary election.

President Obama: There seems to be "no line" Vivek Ramaswamy will not cross. "There's a decency that we should expect out of our public officials. And I don't know what's happened where the standards of behavior have gotten so low that somebody can run an ad like that."
